Hey everyone! I'm putting together my first PC build and would love some feedback before I make any purchases. Here's what I have planned so far: 1. Ryzen 5 7600x—I'm a bit concerned about whether it will pair well with the RX 7800xt without causing a bottleneck. 2. RX 7800xt for the GPU. 3. For the motherboard, I'm considering either the B650 Gigabyte Gaming AX V2 or the B650 MSI Gaming Plus WiFi. 4. I'm not sure about the cabinet yet, but I'm leaning towards one that looks like a fish tank since I'll be getting the components offline and aesthetics matter to me. 5. For the PSU, I'm looking at either the Cooler Master 750W Gold or the MSI MAG 750W Gold, depending on prices. 6. For RAM, I'm going with Teamgroup T-Force (16x2) 32GB, 6000MHz, CL30. 7. Regarding SSD, I'm torn between the Samsung 990 Pro or the 990 Evo—any thoughts on which is better? 8. I'm also planning to buy a monitor; I've chosen the MSI MAG 275QF, which is a 27-inch 2K gaming monitor. 9. Lastly, I'm considering the Deepcool LE360 ARGB V2 for cooling but open to suggestions. My total estimate is around ₹1.30-1.40 lakh (around $1,500-$1,645). Any advice on where I can cut costs or where I should invest more would be super helpful! Thanks for your time! 😊

Everything looks good overall! The only thing is that spending on an AIO might not give you much advantage unless you’re into that look. A decent air cooler will keep your CPU cool without breaking the bank. For SSDs, consider options like Crucial P3; they offer great performance without the Samsung price tag.
Yeah, an AIO doesn’t cool significantly better than a standard tower cooler in most situations, and you won't have bottlenecking issues with the setup you're planning. The 7800xt has enough VRAM for 1440p gaming, so you're making a wise choice there!
Thanks for the reassurance! That puts my mind at ease a bit.
You might not need an AIO cooler unless you really want the aesthetics because the 7600x runs pretty cool. A budget tower air cooler would do the job just fine, and you'd save some cash. Also, your GPU choice is solid. The RX 7800xt will perform great for 1440p gaming. As for the PSU, 750W should be sufficient, but if you plan to upgrade in the future, consider going for an 850W to play it safe!
Thanks! That helps a lot. Just wanted to be sure I wouldn’t hit any performance snags with the 7600x and 7800xt combo.
Yeah, I was thinking more about the aesthetic since I'm going for a clean white theme. But I'll definitely look into cheaper SSD options!
